Sign up Speak up

This is the email sent out by the MSEA. This is may be the only email you will get. No waste paper, no multiple emails. This is your chance, grab it.
In a new move the Union has decided to get the bargaining committee started early so we can get research done for proposals and involve more members than ever before.
We asked for early bargaining and our Union listened. Now it is time to put up or shut up.
No matter what unit you belong to, sign up for the committee, and come on the 21st. Maybe it won't be for you, maybe you can't give the time it will need, but if you come you will know and you will be able to make an informed decision.

We don't know, but in past years we have elected the first member of the negotiations team at the first meeting. That may happen this year or we might send ballots out for all four. As members of the bargaining committee, you may be making that decision. Electing these representatives will be some of the most important decisions we can make as a Union and you should jump at the chance to be part of the process.

After every contract someone says that their ideas were not heard. I ask them if they brought them up at a committee meeting or if they emailed a team member. So many times the answer is no. Sign up, Speak up, your coworkers may be depending on you to carry their message.

I will be running as a candidate to represent Pro-Tech and I hope you believe that I have represented you well in the past. If I have done a good job, let me know at the meeting on the 21st.
